• Phrontistery (27)
  Welcome to the Phrontistery! Since 1996, I have compiled word lists and language resources to spread the joy of the English language in all its variety through time and space. A phrontistery (from the Greek phrontistes 'thinker') is meant to be a thinking-place for reflection and intellectual stimulation. I invite you to explore the various site features relating to language and lexicography, find that half-remembered rare or obscure word you've been looking for, or to read and explore essays on language, linguistics, and culture. Have a look around, and enjoy!

  My plan to upload lots of content to this blog has made some good progress; still more to come mind, it rests as scribbles on leaves of paper about the house

  About a Blog…
  
  Tipped from pot luck, it seems you were, possibly from pot ‘bad luck’ as falling hitherward from high, I see you are. A fleeting descent. Use its moment to look down and meet the mire that waits to greet you. Feel its momentum slam you down–slap you into the slop. A silted, muddied water’s edge bescrawled with the swirls, curls and twists of a wet stick once held by an aspirant artisan. Those scrawls are script; the inaugural writings of this maundering blog. Plonked purposely here in the unexplored slime-some backend of the web’s nowhere and intended to be paid no mind in the hardest currency of all–pure ignorance. Leave space to mull a little though, let that ignorance be a shade impure; permit yourself a second’s thought for a second thought. Scratch your chin, make ‘hmmm’ sound and furrow a frown over this being a flukey or ill-fated encounter.?.?. No, the notion, just dismiss it; for scratching invokes further itching and confusion comes from uncomfortable thinking.
  
  Look about instead... [museworthyman]

  Joey is ten. If you haven´t already guessed that from the name, Joey obviously is a boy. The problem is, whilst Joey is a boy, his friend is a girl. She has no name. Joey didn´t bother to name her. He knows she is there and he knows she exists and because he knows she exists, he thinks she doesn´t need a name. Joey has learned that all things have a name and that he is supposed to call things by their name. Joey believes that once things have a name, they will exist. So he didn´t give the girl a name, because most of the time he wishes she wouldn´t exist and he fears that once she has a name, she will never disappear...
